2011-10-11md: add proper write-congestion reporting to RAID1 and RAID10.NeilBrown
RAID1 and RAID10 handle write requests by queuing them for handling by a separate thread. This is because when a write-intent-bitmap is active we might need to update the bitmap first, so it is good to queue a lot of writes, then do one big bitmap update for them all. However writeback request devices to appear to be congested after a while so it can make some guesstimate of throughput. The infinite queue defeats that (note that RAID5 has already has a finite queue so it doesn't suffer from this problem). So impose a limit on the number of pending write requests. By default it is 1024 which seems to be generally suitable. Make it configurable via module option just in case someone finds a regression. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2011-10-11md: remove typedefs: mddev_t -> struct mddevNeilBrown
Having mddev_t and 'struct mddev_s' is ugly and not preferred Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2011-10-11md: removing typedefs: mdk_rdev_t -> struct md_rdevNeilBrown
The typedefs are just annoying. 'mdk' probably refers to 'md_k.h' which used to be an include file that defined this thing. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2011-07-28md/raid10: Handle write errors by updating badblock log.NeilBrown
When we get a write error (in the data area, not in metadata), update the badblock log rather than failing the whole device. As the write may well be many blocks, we trying writing each block individually and only log the ones which fail. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2011-07-28md/raid10: clear bad-block record when write succeeds.NeilBrown
If we succeed in writing to a block that was recorded as being bad, we clear the bad-block record. This requires some delayed handling as the bad-block-list update has to happen in process-context. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2011-07-28md/raid10: avoid reading from known bad blocks - part 1NeilBrown
This patch just covers the basic read path: 1/ read_balance needs to check for badblocks, and return not only the chosen slot, but also how many good blocks are available there. 2/ read submission must be ready to issue multiple reads to different devices as different bad blocks on different devices could mean that a single large read cannot be served by any one device, but can still be served by the array. This requires keeping count of the number of outstanding requests per bio. This count is stored in 'bi_phys_segments' On read error we currently just fail the request if another target cannot handle the whole request. Next patch refines that a bit.

2011-07-27md/raid10: Make use of new recovery_disabled handlingNeilBrown
When we get a read error during recovery, RAID10 previously arranged for the recovering device to appear to fail so that the recovery stops and doesn't restart. This is misleading and wrong. Instead, make use of the new recovery_disabled handling and mark the target device and having recovery disabled. Add appropriate checks in add_disk and remove_disk so that devices are removed and not re-added when recovery is disabled. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2010-06-24md: fix handling of array level takeover that re-arranges devices.NeilBrown
Most array level changes leave the list of devices largely unchanged, possibly causing one at the end to become redundant. However conversions between RAID0 and RAID10 need to renumber all devices (except 0). This renumbering is currently being done in the ->run method when the new personality takes over. However this is too late as the common code in md.c might already have invalidated some of the devices if they had a ->raid_disk number that appeared to high. Moving it into the ->takeover method is too early as the array is still active at that time and wrong ->raid_disk numbers could cause confusion. So add a ->new_raid_disk field to mdk_rdev_s and use it to communicate the new raid_disk number. Now the common code knows exactly which devices need to be renumbered, and which can be invalidated, and can do it all at a convenient time when the array is suspend. It can also update some symlinks in sysfs which previously were not be updated correctly. Reported-by: Maciej Trela <maciej.trela@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2009-06-16md: remove mddev_to_conf "helper" macroNeilBrown
Having a macro just to cast a void* isn't really helpful. I would must rather see that we are simply de-referencing ->private, than have to know what the macro does. So open code the macro everywhere and remove the pointless cast. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-03-31md: move lots of #include lines out of .h files and into .cNeilBrown
This makes the includes more explicit, and is preparation for moving md_k.h to drivers/md/md.h Remove include/raid/md.h as its only remaining use was to #include other files. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-03-31md: move headers out of include/linux/raid/Christoph Hellwig
Move the headers with the local structures for the disciplines and bitmap.h into drivers/md/ so that they are more easily grepable for hacking and not far away. md.h is left where it is for now as there are some uses from the outside.
